Fender American Custom Stratocaster - Antique Sunburst
Step into a legacy of tone with the Fender American Custom Stratocaster, a guitar that seamlessly blends classic appeal with modern playability. Crafted with a beautiful ash body finished in a stunning nitrocellulose lacquer Antique Sunburst, this Strat is a true head-turner. The roasted AAA flame maple neck with its comfortable 10/56 V profile feels instantly familiar, while the 9.5" radius roasted AAA flame maple fingerboard and narrow tall frets make for effortless bends and lightning-fast runs. This isn't just any Strat; it's a testament to Fender's unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and innovation, carrying the torch passed down by legends like Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix.
Under the hood, this American Custom Stratocaster is loaded with a trio of Fender Custom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '60s single-coil pickups. These pickups deliver that iconic, bell-like Strat tone with a little extra punch, perfect for everything from sparkling cleans to gritty blues and classic rock. The middle pickup is RWRP (reverse-wound, reverse-polarity), ensuring hum-canceling in positions 2 and 4. Paired with a vintage synchronized tremolo and Fender Modern Locking tuners, you'll have incredible tuning stability and expressive vibrato at your fingertips. Whether you're chasing the tones of your heroes or forging your own sonic path, this Strat is ready to inspire.
